Think about that Wednesday in Oakland. In the afternoon, a giant, peaceful crowd of people — including my family and me — marched from downtown Oakland to the city’s port. The mood was relaxed, convivial, almost carnivalesque.
But later that night, a group that couldn’t have been more than a few hundred people broke windows downtown, spray-painted walls, and fought with police. They were tear-gassed, and scores were arrested.
How should we talk about that day’s events? Was it the same event — a single protest that “turned” violent? Or was it two separate events, a peaceful one and a violent one? And, more important: Was it the same crowd?

All isolated incidents folks.
Nothing to see here.
Criminal activity is non-existent at OWS events.
It's all a lie by the media, and especially "rape victims".

it is the responsibility of the OP the poster of said claims do verify their truth or veracity. not that of the reader.

proj...these are just individual isolated events.
I keep telling OWS supporters...all these "isolated" events add up to define the whole...but they continue to try to defend this behavior.
Nice job in compiling that list...it really shows how many issues there have been with this movement.
Interesting, so the left wing media is wrong about the TPM but the right wing media is right about Occupy?

And which ones are they?
Are you saying sexual assault has NOT happened? Or that the allegation are false? Or even better, the victims and witnesses are lying?edit on 7-11-2011 by projectvxn because: (no reason given)

I never blamed anything on Gays.
I have a large park near me that has through out the years had problems with homeless,drug dealing,rape,robbery etc.. ( maybe even a murder or two). If an occupy movement were to actually occupy this park then the crimes couldn't be contributed to Occupy it would just be a continuance of what already existed for the last twenty years!(but I'm sure people on this board would twist it so that it was Occupies fault.
I don't know how you can expect to change anybody's mind or enlighten folk on ATS or otherwise, with such a condescending, obstructive and dismissive attitude.

I'm not trying to change anyone's mind.
People who are in the bag for OWS will be in the bag for OWS even if they start shoving down republican grandmas.
It is clear to me you didn't read the sources. What am I to defend if you don't know what to attack(figuratively not literally).
The article paints the WHOLE generation not just occupy in this light.
Willing sex! no sexual assault other than the man in question believed the girl about her age and happened to be wrong.( please do not single this post to debate. because I DO NOT advocate sex with minors)
I'll give You the assault but not the indifference that You Imply all Occupiers have towards the victims.
This an alleged assault told to the reporter by someone that heard it from someone else. WTH really? this is credible enough to use as Your "proof"?
5) Is an article from The New York Post and as can be clearly seen at this link they don't amount to much more than the National enquirer to me with their sensationalism and bias.
6) I feel for this woman and am upset the crowd wouldn't help her find the perpetrator.
7) Another story from the biased Rag The New York post.
This guy was not arrested at nor did his crimes happen at Occupy Seattle. He was said to have been taking part in the protests but of course people that get off by exposing themselves would tend to gravitate towards a large crowd.
9) This is the exact same case as in link 2 so isn't even worth going into because You doubled up on Your stories to make it seem like there were more incidents than there really are.
Sorry but You're going to have to come up with some better evidence than what You have provided in Your first 9 links before I even consider reading anymore of the links to sensationalism and fear mongering that occurs in Your OP.

Pretty obviously skewed list of who’s contributing… It excludes some of the earliest and most vocal of supporters.
Michael Moore?
current.com...
Ron Paul?

A slew of unions (USW, NY Transit, IWW).

That was obviously purposeful.

People aren’t THAT dumb… Calling this “Official” is absurd, this is a conservative/libertarian fringe news blog, nothing in any way associated with OWS, and is actually quite opposed to it. So you are either joking, or just have that low of an opinion of your readers.

So, what IS the message being sent by OWS?
